Prof. Nagindas Jivanlal Shah (1931-2014) Prof. Nagindas Jivanlal Shah, a renowned Sanskritist and eminent scholar of Indian philosophy, was born in a Jain family residing in the town of Sayala in Surendranagar district, Saurashtra. The date was 13 January 1931. He did his initial years of schooling at Vatva Jain Ashram which was founded by Shree Manekmuni Ji. He completed his schooling at Sheth C.N. Vidyavihar and resided in Mahavir Jain Vidyalaya while he was pursuing his B.A. and M.A. In the B.A. examination conducted by Gujarat University he passed with First Class Distinction and stood second among all the colleges in Gujarat University. He was then appointed as a Fellow in Gujarat University. In his M.A. examination he scored highest marks in Sanskrit for which he received M.L. Prize awarded by the university. In 1958 he was appointed lecturer in Sanskrit at D.K.V. Government College, Jamnagar. To pursue his Ph.D.in Sanskrit he left the government job and joined L.D. Institute of Indology, Ahmedabad as a research officer. He stayed with the institute till 1991, serving in different capacities as a research officer, Dy. Director and Director. He earned his Doctorate Degree writing thesis titled 'Akalanka's Criticism of Dharmakirti's Philosophy- A Study under the guidance of Pandit Sukhlalji Sanghavi, an eminent Indologist and great thinker. When published in 1966, it was widely acclaimed by scholars all over the world like Hajime Nakamura, Douglas Daye and Satkodi Mukherjee. Hajime For Personal & Private Use Only

Nakamura wrote in his review, "The author's achievements are wonderful and successful in many respects. Hithertofore, Jain logic has been a field which non-Indian scholars have approached very seldom, in spite of copiousness and voluminousness of its literature, and in this respect I would say the author has made a remarkable contribution... This work has opened a gate to philosophical understanding which is essential to the history of ideas. Philosophy East and West said, "The book is obviously a 'must for anyone interested in the Jaina logicians; it is also of particular value for anyone interested in the Buddhist logicians from a rather novel point of view largely ignored in twentiethcentury scholarship. The reader will find a wealth of information and a wide-ranging summary of many fascinating problems of Indian philosophy." He resigned from the Directorship of the L.D. Institute in 1984 so that he could devote full time for research. After his retirement in 1991 he independently started work on Sanskrit books and manuscripts. From his savings of lifetime he published seven encyclopedias on Indian literature and philosophy. At present he has several brilliant works to his credit. The following are his works in English: Essay in Indian Philosophy, Samantabhadra's Aptamimasa - Critique of an Authority, A Study of Jayanta Bhatta's Nyaymanjari - A Mature Sanskrit work on Indian Logic(in three parts). And the following works are in Gujarati: Sankhya- Yoga, Nyaya- Vaisesika, Bharatiya Tattvajnana, Sankara Vedanta - Avidya, Bauddha DharmaDarsana. He has also given an excellent English translation of Muni Nyayavijayaji's voluminous important Gujarati work JainaDarsana (English title: Jaina Philosophy and Religion). Moreover, he has edited, from the old original manuscripts, the unpublished Nyayamanjari-Granthibhanga. In 2000, he delivered a series of three lectures in Guajarati on Conception of Sraddha, Matijnana and Kevalajnana in Jaina Philosophy under the auspices of B.J. Institute of Learning and Research, Ahmedabad. Their Hindi version is also published. He translated into lucid Gujarati Mm. Vidhushekhar Bhattacharya's Basic Conception of Buddhism.

Again, he has edited the following two important works: (1) Jaina Theory of Multiple Facets of Reality and Truth (2) Ac. Hemacandra's Pramanamimamsa- A Critique of Organ of Knowledge, A work on JAINA LOGIC. He has been proud recipient of many prestigious awards such as * Pre- eminent Sanskrit Scholar Award (1996) of Gujarat State Sanskrit Sahitya Academy. * Research Prize by Sardar Patel University * Siddhasen Divakara Gold Medal for Contribution to Indian and Jaina Philosophy * Hemchandra Acharya Gold Medal and Award (B.L. Institute) of Rs. 51,000 for his contribution to Jain Philosophy by writing excellent works. Furthermore he loved to teach and under his tutelage seven students completed their research work for Ph.D. As a person he shied away from public discussions and attention. Rather he loved to have one on one discussion with highly intellectual minds. Throughout his lifetime he was invited by various Indian and foreign universities but he declined them as it was not his personal characteristics to be in public attention. In spite of all his accolades he always maintained a low profile and believed in Gandhian philosophy of life. He shall always be cherished for his simplicity and, a very practical and ideal attitude towards people, towards his work and towards his life. For Personal & Private Use Only
